suit 10 Recover Large Portion of the
Site of Marysy;lla


Site of Marysville.
Copyright, 1887, By 1e California associated Press
MARYsvILLE, October 17th.-Charles J.
Coylllaud, young attorney of this CITY.
to-day brought siXty-five different suits for
himself and four other heirs of his father
the late Charles CoVillaud, to recover dam
ages and rents for unlawful appropriation Of
land In the city and adjoining country,
Tor which he claims their father never
parted title. He was one of the founders of
tue city OF Marysyille which was named
alter his wife, Mary. He, with number of
others, was owner of the rancho on which
the city stands. and the Honcut Rancho. on
which some of the land sued for by the
heirs is located. The claims for rents and
damages aggregate more than half million
dollars. \ uba county is included in the
SUIT, and on portion of the land claimed
by the Covillaud heirs, and regarded as
county property, costly County Hospital
has been erected.
The defense in these suits has not vet
been formulated. but the main point is said
. to be that the original Covillaud interest in
the lands in question was sold by the
Sheriff at auction, Coviilaud having become
insolvent
The beginning of the suits has caused no
sensation. The making Of the claim by the
Covillauds has been expected for some time
past, and they have at work quietly over
the preparations for the suits. A lew par
ties have compromised with the heir for
small fractions of the amounts claimed, to
save the expense of litigation.
The general belief is that the claim
against the county will not be made to
stick, as it will undoubtedly be contested
in the Courts

men out, Baldwin muiled 0'Neills foul fiy.
ONeill evinced his gratitude by lining the
second ball pitched over the center field

sharp and brilliant The spectators, num-

be partial to the Browns, and cbeered them
whenever the opportunity offered. The ST.

the first two innings, but after Bennett had
nailed a couple of them they hugged their

THE HARLAN MURDER.
The Mystery Believed to Have Been
Cleared at Last.

cleared at Last.
ICcPyTiS 1857, by tie California associated Press
Los ANGELES, October 17th.-The Harlan
murder case continues to be the great topic
OF conversation with all classes. The
sympathy OF the police is very much with
the unfortunate woman, and there can be
found very few people who think Hattie
Woolsteen is guilty of the crime charged
against her. The unfortunate woman is in
a very precarious condition. Some ladies
OF this city have engaged counsel to defend
her IN The Courts. She denies having had
anything TO do with Harlan's death, OF
that she had made any confession to any
one to that effect.
THE REAL MURDERER.
LATEB.-It is reported that the murderer
OF Doc. Harlan has been discovered this
evening.
John NJ. Oliver is the name of the man
on whom the suspicion of the murder
rested. He is said TO be a cousin of Miss
Hattie Woolsteen, lives in Klckapoo, Ill
and came here several weeks ago at her re.
quest.
AN OUTLINE OF THE CAsE.
Los ANGELES, October 17th.-The story
is that Harlan had met the girl in Illinois
and she had come TO California after him
Recently. learning that he was married
she sent for her cousin, who came. He
gave Harlan three days time in which tc
decide what he should do, and it was on
the night of the last day that the girl and
Harlan went riding TO Compton. Harlan
declined to elope with her, and drew pis
tol and was about to shoot himself, when
Ollver, who was secreted by a
barn. Just where the buggy had halted
rushed to the buggy, and crying to Harlan
that he needn't kill himself, drew re-
volver and sent bullet through his brain
Oliver dragged the body out of the buggy
and into the barn. Then he set fire to the
barn, believing that by so doing all trace:
OF the the crime would be covered up.
